Objective
o To increase new smear positive TB case detection in the project districts that do not meet the Nepal’s national target of 82%.
o To ensure new SS+ve cases are enrolled in DOTS centres and NTP programmes
o To increase the treatment success rate in the selected project districts from 85% to 90%.

Project Approach Project Approach
Project ApproachProject Approach
• Mobilization of trained Female Community Health Volunteers (FCHVs)•Active case-finding through contact tracing of index patients
o Identification and verification of index caseso Prioritization and interview of cases (consent) o Door to door visit by FCHVs for sputum
collectiono Sputum collection and delivery to microscopic
center
• Serve hard-to-reach populations using microscopy camps• Develop and disseminate BCC materials•Refresher courses to train frontline staff

Intervention/Activities Intervention/Activities
o 510 (Year 1) and 420 (Year 2) FCHVs and local volunteers orientated and mobilised across project districts
o 750 treatment centre staff trained across project districts
o 105 lab personnel orientated and mobilized for quality TB microscopy
Intervention/Activities Intervention/Activities
o 86 Microscopy Camps conducted across project districts
o Field level activities closely monitored and supervised by NTC, RHD, RTLO, DHO /PHO, DTLO, Laboratory personnel and TBRP staff to verify identified cases.
o 27 Technical Support Network meetings conducted (405 participants from D/PHO, district level stakeholders and partners)

Result SummaryResult Summary• We verified almost all of target index cases in Year 1
and more than the target number in Year 2
• We screened more than the target number of index cases in both Year 1 and Year 2
• We found more than the target number of new cases of SS+ve TB in Year 2
• TB reach BNMT is showing additionality in case finding in the project regions compared to the control regions
• Treatment outcomes for Year 1 show positive results. Year 2 are being analysed at present and compared to control data.

o Committed community level volunteers.
o Targeting of hard to reach communities (via
microscopy camps)
o Working experience and existing set up of
BNMT.
o Committed and supportive donor.
o Addressing major global health issue
alongside international, local and
governmental organizations.
Project StrengthsProject Strengths
o Challenges in identification of index patients• Exact location is unspecified especially in urban
areas (rental units), and current address is not updated in register.
• Incomplete record• Diagnosed in Nepal but citizen of India and
recorded false address of Nepalo Gap between suspected and examined
cases in Year 1(8%), but improved in Year 2 (6%)
o Positive yield is only 4%. Target 5% in the project proposal.
o Persistent difficulty addressing certain groups (Women, children, migrant workers)
Project ChallengesProject Challenges
1. Active case finding through contact tracing of index cases
2. Microscopy camps in hard-to-reach and inaccessible areas from microscopy centres
Recommendations from Recommendations from BNMT-TB REACH adopted by BNMT-TB REACH adopted by NTC NTC
“When I found out that TB is curable and the treatment is free, I committed to completing the full course of medicine. I hope to get well and start working again.”
“I can move and start to do my work thanks to the treatment and your help.”
‘Project staff told me that TB is curable if treatment is taken on a regular basis and that this is free of cost. My depression lifted’
